and romney last night, you know, one thing he did say the obama campaign is seizing on today, he said he thinks he pays a fairer tax rate than middle class americans because, you know, he paid 14% tax rate largely capital gains and scott pelley asked him, do you think that's fair you pay a lower tax rate than someone making $50,000 a year and mitt romney said, yes, that's the way the economy works. so the fact that mitt romney is not being specific here, he says the obama campaign is going to attack him for that, they're attacking him already. so it is a lose-lose situation for romney here, brooke. >> it is a preview, though, a lot of people are writing and blogging today that that interview with scott pelley, both of them, president obama and mitt romney, as a preview of what to expect a week from wednesday, that first presidential debate in denver, colorado. peter hamby, thank you, sir, for us in washington. >>> a lot more happening here this hour. roll it. >> the morning after pill in some high schools. how this is creating quite a stir in one of america's biggest cities. i'm brook

here's where we are coming into the night. romney is ahead but a race to 1144. remember, if this goes on, it's about delegates, not momentum. we're barely getting started. here we are in florida today. let's assume the polls are right and mitt romney wins florida. but remember, you have to get from there all the way over to here. a long way to go. let's go through. let's assume, for the sake of argument. if you're a gingrich supporter, a ron paul supporter, a rick santorum supporter, but let's assume newt gingrich wins minnesota, missouri and colorado. that's a place where ron paul could do well, but let's give it to mitt romney for the sake of argument. if mitt romney runs the map in february, he would get about 236. why is newt gingrich staying in? because even if this happens, we get to march. i'm going to give this to ron paul in this hypothetical. then you come here on super tuesday, we start to move to the south. gingrich thinks this is where he can do better. so if you watch these stakes play out -- i just gave romney virginia. why? newt gingrich didn't m
